“It’s like the world has lost a huge star, it’s so sad and my heart hurts.”

Idol
group SHINee’s Minho could not hid his sadness upon hearing the news of

Minho established a friendship with Andre Kim after becoming the main
male model for ‘Andre Kim’s Fashion Show for World Knowledge Forum.’

Minho
beat himself up, stating through his company’s representative, “I
resent myself so much and became regretful for not being able to give
him a simple greeting.”

Minho’s company representative stated
Minho, who was scheduled to go to Kangwon-do and Sokcho for a broadcast,
dropped out after receiving the sad news.

Meanwhile Andre Kim
was hospitalized at Seoul National University Hospital receiving
treatment for pneumonia and died of colorectal cancer on the 12th at
7:25 PM at the age of 75. The deceased has been placed in the funeral
hall of Seoul National University Hospital.
